Week #21 Taunton

November 30, 2016

Update

This last week was a good week!!

    First off we had specialized zone training on my birthday with an interview with President so that was way cool. We then had stake conference Saturday and Sunday in Bristol! We stayed in Bristol at some Elders flat. There were 10 other Elders from the zone, it was crazy haha!  I slept on the ground and froze all night!  We had Elder Obando from the 70's come and speak at Stake Conference and he talked a lot about going to the roots of our problems in life and finding ways to have peace in life. The best way to solve marriage, family, or personal problems is to head to the root of the situation and sometimes just remembering your a son or daughter of God can bless our lives. (:  

    We have been trying to get our teaching pool back up because we have noone we are teaching right now so it has been a lot of finding all day every day. Really trying to help my comp get better and it's been a challenge but it's moving along. With the new #LIGHTtheWORLD initiative the church has out we have been finding more success! 

Yesterday, we found a new investigator named Jordan. He's in his mid 20s and he's a homie for sure!! He was way interested and says he wants to meet up this week so hopefully we can teach him soon! 

    Love this work and the people in England! Seeing peoples faces and spirit light up when they hear they can find peace in this life is my favorite! Go share the great word with people this Christmas season!!! #LIGHTtheWORLD is so cool so check out mormon.org and go serve others!! 

  

Much love from Taunton! Have a good week(:
